Web hosting

捆绑SM社区

A web hosting service consists of a server and/or platform that allows departments and publishers to make their website accessible to their audiences. 捆绑SM社区 offers many hosting options, including its recommended central IT-supported Web Management System platform for official departments, units, and frontline services. Here we list that service as well as other central and non-central options.

Web Management System

The 捆绑SM社区听Web Management System听(WMS) is a content management system that provides a user-friendly, feature-rich, centralized method of building and maintaining web pages. This unified support service includes design and content consultation, as well as training and support for site admins, site managers, and site editors.听

Benefits of the WMS include:听

  • Page layout and design that complies with accessibility standards.
  • Consistent design theme across all 捆绑SM社区 sites while still allowing individual sites to customize their layouts.
  • Since the system is built on an open-source platform, it can be upgraded and enhanced to meet the needs of 捆绑SM社区 publishers.
  • Easier editing tools, including a听WYSIWYG editor听for most content.
  • Centrally managed by 捆绑SM社区, so you don't have to worry about upgrading software, managing servers, etc.

Virtual web hosting

Virtual web hosting allows you to publish your independently designed website on a centrally managed system that is secure, reliable and easily recoverable, and offers a reduced risk of server downtime. These websites are nevertheless expected to conform to 捆绑SM社区 accessibility and branding guidelines.听IT Services assumes no responsibility for the construction or maintenance of the sites using this service. It is expected that clients requesting a virtual host have the skill and competency needed to install and run their own site and any additional compatible software. Certain space limits and restrictions apply.
